May inode number be zero?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I have numbered root inode of my experimental fs 0. All worked, but ls
did not return the direcotry entry. That is, it didn't return .. entry
in it's children. It showed the mountpoint right. I have not checked if
it shows . in the directory itself.

So my question is, why is inode number supposed to be non-zero?
